Only you are involved in obtaining the sample... so no embarrassment.
The people testing the sample have no idea who you are.
That couple of minutes in your bathroom, may save your life or prevent dramatic changes to it...... so lets celebrate the fact that we live in countries that care enough to send these testing kits.
Twink, Were you reprimanding me?
Some people are abhorred at having to complete this rather unfortunate test. Some even discard the test at the thought of it. By doing that, they could be putting their life in great danger.
By discussing the test with others in a lighthearted way, it might make other people realise we are all in the same boat and completing the test is no big deal.
The time to worry is when you get a positive result and l would say, that the odds against that are very small, in comparison to the negative results.
Of course, the people at the receiving end don’t know who the test belongs to. In fact, there must be some sort of special equipment involved in the process. But at some point, ie. a postman will be handling the packages.
